BlindEagle asserts that this article is a stub of low importance to Wisconsin History. It may be brief, but contains most of the information available on the subject, and is therefore considerbly more than a stub. The only thing holding it back from an A rating, in my opinion, is the lack of a photo. There is a Wisconsin historical marker for the Boaz mastodon, so the organization that places the markers regards the Boaz mastodon of importance to Wisconsin history.

I agree it's not a stub, but is very far from B class. B class articles contain a thorough amount of information on the topic and this article is brief. Even a C class article should have more information than this. If this is truly mid importance, then this isn't a C class article. I have reassessed. I'm torn between assessing the importance as low or mid class, so I'll default to keeping as mid. Royalbroil13:31, 26 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
